The everlasting search for knowledge and wisdom is represented by the spiral. It can be found in the galaxies and in DNA, the sacred geometry used in the construction of the pyramids and gothic cathedrals, mathematical constants, alchemist's formulas, and art dating back to the Stone Age. This mysterious, cosmic symbol is also indicative of a journey, an evolution. Use the Tarot of the Mystic Spiral to help you on your own quest―whether you're seeking personal growth, spiritual enlightenment, or a glimpse into the ultimate meaning of life.
Boxed deck (2¾ x 4¾) includes 78 full-color cards
Most Lo Scarabeo decks are in five languages: English, Spanish, French, Italian, and German.
The artwork by Giuseppe Palumbo is vibrant, lively, and intricate but not overly crowded. This deck is rich in mythical AND cultural diversity. You will meet Vikings, Maori dancers, religious leaders, characters such as the Goddess Hera, Archimedes, Leonardo Da Vinci, and mathematician Daniel Bernoulli. You will find yourself celebrating with Dervishes in the 6 of Chalices card, gazing in wonder at the Great Pyramids in the 4 of Pentacles card, wandering a green forest in the 9 of Wands card, or sailing through a maelstrom in the 6 of Swords card. There is some nudity such as the lovers card which shows a couple holding hands and laughing as they dance in a field, or the devil card which is represented as half woman, half goat. I personally feel the nudity is tasteful and not offensive.
Although the majors follow Rider-Waite symbolism, a lot of the minors are new depictions. This deck might not be the best choice for a beginner or those who prefer the Rider-Waite symbolism. I find my readings with this deck require deeper thinking and more concentration but the end result is that much more gratifying and meaningful.
The back of the cards feature a reversible celtic design in blue and green shades. The borders are dark blue and unobtrusive with 6 different languages in the corners, common for decks published by Lo Scarabeo. The suits are Chalices (emotions), Pentacles (matter), Wands (creativity), and Swords (the mind). The court cards are Knave, Knight, Queen, King.
This deck has become one of my favorites for its combination of rich imagery, diverse history, subtle science references, and for the adventure of discovery it has led me on!
